Examples
Initialize the radioset with no options specified:
$(".selector").ojRadioset();
Initialize the radioset with some options and callbacks specified:
$( ".selector" ).ojRadioset( { "value": "copy", "valuechange":
function( event, ui ) {alert("valuechanged from " + ui.previousValue + " to " + ui.value);} } );
Initialize component using widget API
<label id="grouplabel">Greetings</label>
<div id="radioset" aria-labelledby="grouplabel">
<input id="helloid" value="hello" type="radio" name="greetings"/>
<label for="helloid"/>Hello</label>
<input id="bonjourid" value="bonjour" type="radio" name="greetings"/>
<label for="bonjourid"/>Bonjour</label>
<input id="ciaoid" value="ciao" type="radio" name="greetings"/>
<label for="ciaoid"/>Ciao</label>
<div>
// set the value to "ciao". (The 'ciao' radio will be checked)
$("#radioset").ojRadioset({'option', 'value', 'ciao'});
Initialize a radioset via the JET
ojComponent
binding:
<label id="grouplabel">Time</label>
<div id="radioset" data-bind="ojComponent: {component: 'ojRadioset', value: 'night'}
aria-labelledby="grouplabel" >
<input id="morningid" value="morning" type="radio" name="time"/>
<label for="morningid"/>Morning</label>
<input id="nightid" value="night" type="radio" name="time"/>
<label for="nightid"/>Night</label>
<div>
Using knockout, value bind to observable:
<label id="grouplabel">Time</label>
<div id="radioset" data-bind="ojComponent: {component: 'ojRadioset',
value: currentTime}
aria-labelledby="grouplabel" >
<input id="morningid" value="morning" type="radio" name="time"/>
<label for="morningid"/>Morning</label>
<input id="nightid" value="night" type="radio" name="time"/>
<label for="nightid"/>Night</label>
<div>
// in the model, make the currentTime variable a knockout observable.
// The model and the component's value option will stay in sync. Change the
// component's value option and the model will change. Change the model,
// and the component's value option will change. Click on a radio, and both
// will change.
self.currentTime = ko.observable("night");
Options
-
contextMenu :Object
-
JQ selector identifying the JET Menu that the component should launch as a context menu on right-click, Shift-F10, Press & Hold, or component-specific gesture. If specified, the browser's native context menu will be replaced by the specified JET Menu.
To specify a JET context menu on a DOM element that is not a JET component, see the
ojContextMenu
binding.To make the page semantically accurate from the outset, applications are encouraged to specify the context menu via the standard HTML5 syntax shown in the below example. When the component is initialized, the context menu thus specified will be set on the component.
After create time, the
contextMenu
option should be set via this API, not by setting the DOM attribute.- Default Value:
null
- Inherited From:
- Source:
Examples
Initialize a JET component with a context menu:
// via recommended HTML5 syntax: <div id="myComponent" contextmenu="myMenu" data-bind="ojComponent: { ... }> // via JET initializer (less preferred) : // Foo is the component, e.g., InputText, InputNumber, Select, etc. $( ".selector" ).ojFoo({ "contextMenu": "#myMenu" });
Get or set the
contextMenu
option, after initialization:// getter // Foo is the component, e.g., Menu, Button, InputText, InputNumber, Select, etc. var menu = $( ".selector" ).ojFoo( "option", "contextMenu" ); // setter // Foo is the component, e.g., InputText, InputNumber, Select, etc. $( ".selector" ).ojFoo( "option", "contextMenu", ".my-marker-class" );
Set a JET context menu on an ordinary HTML element:
<a href="#" id="myAnchor" contextmenu="myMenu" data-bind="ojContextMenu: {}">Some text
-
disabled :boolean
-
Disabled
true
disables the component and disables all the inputs/labels. Disabledfalse
enables the component, and leaves the inputs'disabled
property as it is in the dom.After create time, the disabled state should be set via this API, not by setting the underlying DOM attribute.
The 2-way
disabled
binding offered by theojComponent
binding should be used instead of Knockout's built-indisable
andenable
bindings, as the former sets the API, while the latter sets the underlying DOM attribute.- Default Value:
false
- Source:
Example
Initialize component with
disabled
option:$(".selector").ojRadioset({"disabled": true});
-
displayOptions :Object|undefined
-
Display options for auxilliary content that determines where it should be displayed in relation to the component.
The types of messaging content for which display options can be configured include
messages
,converterHint
,validatorHint
andtitle
.
The display options for each type is specified either as an array of strings or a string. When an array is specified the first display option takes precedence over the second and so on.JET editable components set defaults that apply to the entire app/page. It is possible to override the defaults on a per instance basis as explained in the examples below or change defaults for the entire application using
oj.Components#setDefaultOptions
method. It is much easier to change the defaults using setDefaultOptions once rather than putting the displayOptions option on every component instance.
When displayOptions changes due to programmatic intervention, the component updates its display to reflect the updated choices. For example, if 'title' property goes from 'notewindow' to 'none' then it no longer shows in the notewindow.
- Default Value:
{
'messages': ['inline'],
'converterHint': ['placeholder', 'notewindow'],
'validatorHint': ['notewindow'],
'title': ['notewindow']
}

Properties:
Name Type Argument Description converterHint
Array | string <optional>
supported values are 'placeholder'
,'notewindow'
,'none'
. The default value is['placeholder', 'notewindow']
. When there is already a placeholder set on the component, the converter hint falls back to display type of 'notewindow'. To change the default value you can do this -
E.g.{'displayOptions: {'converterHint': ['none']}}
validatorHint
Array | string <optional>
supported values are 'notewindow'
,'none'
. To change the default value you can do this -
{'displayOptions: {'validatorHint': ['none']}}
messages
Array | string <optional>
supported values are 'notewindow'
,'inline'
,'none'
. The default is 'inline'. To change the default value you can do this -
E.g.{'displayOptions: {'messages': 'none'}}
title
Array | string <optional>
supported values are 'notewindow'
,'none'
. To change the default value you can do this -
E.g.{'displayOptions: {'title': 'none'}}
Examples
Override default values for
displayOptions
for messages for the entire application:// messages will be shown in the notewindow for the application. oj.Components.setDefaultOptions({ 'editableValue': { 'displayOptions': { 'messages': ['notewindow'] } } });
Override default values for
displayOptions
for one component instance:// In this example, the instance of ojFoo changes its displayOptions from the defaults. // The 'converterHint' is none, the 'validatorHint' is none and the 'title' is none, // so only the 'messages' will display in its default state. // For most apps, you will want to change the displayOptions app-wide // for all EditableValue components, so you should use the // oj.Components#setDefaultOptions function instead (see previous example). // // Foo is InputText, InputNumber, Select, etc. $(".selector").ojFoo("option", "displayOptions", { 'converterHint': 'none', 'validatorHint': 'none', 'title' : 'none' });

messagesCustom :Array|undefined
-
List of messages an app would add to the component when it has business/custom validation errors that it wants the component to show. When this option is set the
messagesShown
option is also updated.

-
required :boolean|undefined
-
Whether the component is required or optional. When required is set to true, an implicit required validator is created using the validator factory -
oj.Validation.validatorFactory(oj.ValidatorFactory.VALIDATOR_TYPE_REQUIRED).createValidator()
. Translations specified using thetranslations.required
option and the label associated with the component, are passed through to the options parameter of the createValidator method.When
required
option changes due to programmatic intervention, the component may clears messages and run validation, based on the current state it's in.Running Validation
- if component is valid when required is set to true, then it runs deferred validation on
the option value. This is to ensure errors are not flagged unnecessarily.
- if there is a deferred validation error, then
messagesHidden
option is updated.
- if there is a deferred validation error, then
- if component is invalid and has deferred messages when required is set to false, then component messages are cleared but no deferred validation is run.
- if component is invalid and currently showing invalid messages when required is set, then
component messages are cleared and normal validation is run using the current display value.
- if there are validation errors, then
value
option is not updated and the error pushed tomessagesShown
option. - if no errors result from the validation, the
value
option is updated; page author can listen to theoptionChange
event on thevalue
option to clear custom errors.
- if there are validation errors, then
Clearing Messages
- Only messages created by the component are cleared. These include ones in
messagesHidden
andmessagesShown
options. messagesCustom
option is not cleared.
- Default Value:
- when the option is not set, the element's required property is used as its initial value if it exists.
- Since:
- 0.7
- Inherited From:
- Source:
- See:
Supported Values:
Name Type Description false
boolean implies a value is not required to be provided by the user. This is the default. true
boolean implies a value is required to be provided by user and the input's label will render a required icon. Additionally a required validator - oj.RequiredValidator - is implicitly used if no explicit required validator is set. An explicit required validator can be set by page authors using the validators option. Examples
Initialize the component with the
required
option:$(".selector").ojFoo({required: true}); // Foo is InputText, InputNumber, Select, etc.
Initialize
required
option from html attribute 'required':<input type="text" value= "foobar" required/>
// retreiving the required option returns true $(".selector").ojFoo("option", "required"); // Foo is InputText, InputNumber, Select, etc.Customize messages and hints used by implicit required validator when
required
option is set:<!-- Foo is InputText, InputNumber, Select, etc. --> <input type="text" value="foobar" required data-bind="ojComponent: { component: 'ojFoo', value: password, translations: {'required': { hint: 'custom: enter at least 3 alphabets', messageSummary: 'custom: \'{label}\' is Required', messageDetail: 'custom: please enter a valid value for \'{label}\''}}}"/>
- if component is valid when required is set to true, then it runs deferred validation on
the option value. This is to ensure errors are not flagged unnecessarily.
-
rootAttributes :Object
-
Attributes specified here will be set on the component's root DOM element at creation time. This is particularly useful for components like Dialog that wrap themselves in a new root element at creation time.
The supported attributes are
id
, which overwrites any existing value, andclass
andstyle
, which are appended to the current class and style, if any.Setting this option after component creation has no effect. At that time, the root element already exists, and can be accessed directly via the
widget
method, per the second example below.- Default Value:
null
- Inherited From:
- Source:
Examples
Initialize a JET component, specifying a set of attributes to be set on the component's root DOM element:
// Foo is the component, e.g., Menu, Button, InputText, InputNumber, Select, etc. $( ".selector" ).ojFoo({ "rootAttributes": { "id": "myId", "style": "max-width:100%; color:blue;", "class": "my-class" }});
After initialization,
rootAttributes
should not be used. It is not needed at that time, as attributes of the root DOM element can simply be set directly, usingwidget
:// Foo is the component, e.g., Menu, Button, InputText, InputNumber, Select, etc. $( ".selector" ).ojFoo( "widget" ).css( "height", "100px" ); $( ".selector" ).ojFoo( "widget" ).addClass( "my-class" );
-
title :string|undefined
-
Represents advisory information for the component, such as would be appropriate for a tooltip.
When a title is present it is by default displayed in the notewindow, or as determined by the 'title' property set on the
displayOptions
option. When thetitle
option changes the component refreshes to display the new title.To include formatted text in the title, format the string using html tags. For example the title might look like:
<html>Enter <b>at least</b> 6 characters</html>
- Default Value:
- when the option is not set, the element's title attribute is used as its initial value if it exists.
- Inherited From:
- Source:
Examples
Initialize the component with the
title
option:<!-- Foo is InputText, InputNumber, Select, etc. --> <input id="username" type="text" data-bind=" ojComponent: {component: 'ojFoo', title : 'enter at least 3 alphanumeric characters', pattern: '[a-zA-Z0-9]{3,}', value: ''}"/>

title
option from html attribute 'title':<!-- Foo is InputText, InputNumber, Select, etc. --> <input id="username" type="text" value= "foobar" title="enter at least 3 alphanumeric characters" pattern="[a-zA-Z0-9]{3,}"/>
$("#username").ojFoo({}); // Foo is InputText, InputNumber, Select, etc. // reading the title option will return "enter at least 3 alphanumeric characters" $("#username").ojFoo("option", "title"); // Foo is InputText, InputNumber, Select, etc. -
translations :Object
-
A collection of translated resources from the translation bundle, or
null
if this component has no resources. Resources may be accessed and overridden individually or collectively, as seen in the examples.If this component has (or inherits) translations, their documentation immediately follows this doc entry.

Get or set the
translations
option, after initialization:// Get one. (Foo is InputDate, InputNumber, etc.) var value = $( ".selector" ).ojFoo( "option", "translations.someResourceKey" ); // Get all. (Foo is InputDate, InputNumber, etc.) var values = $( ".selector" ).ojFoo( "option", "translations" ); // Set one, leaving the others intact.

validators :Array|undefined
-
List of validators used by component when performing validation. Each item is either an instance that duck types oj.Validator, or is an Object literal containing the properties listed below. Implicit validators created by a component when certain options are present (e.g.
required
option), are separate from validators specified through this option. At runtime when the component runs validation, it combines the implicit validators with the list specified through this option.Hints exposed by validators are shown in the notewindow by default, or as determined by the 'validatorHint' property set on the
displayOptions
option.When
validators
option changes due to programmatic intervention, the component may decide to clear messages and run validation, based on the current state it is in.Steps Performed Always
- The cached list of validator instances are cleared and new validator hints is pushed to messaging. E.g., notewindow displays the new hint(s).
Running Validation
- if component is valid when validators changes, component does nothing other than the steps it always performs.
- if component is invalid and is showing messages -
messagesShown
option is non-empty, whenvalidators
changes then all component messages are cleared and full validation run using the display value on the component.- if there are validation errors, then
value
option is not updated and the error pushed tomessagesShown
option. - if no errors result from the validation, the
value
option is updated; page author can listen to theoptionChange
event on thevalue
option to clear custom errors.
- if there are validation errors, then
- if component is invalid and has deferred messages when validators changes, it does nothing other than the steps it performs always.
Clearing Messages
- Only messages created by the component are cleared. These include ones in
messagesHidden
andmessagesShown
options. messagesCustom
option is not cleared.
- Inherited From:

Properties:
Name Type Argument Description type
string the validator type that has a oj.ValidatorFactory that can be retrieved using the oj.Validation module. For a list of supported validators refer to oj.ValidatorFactory.
E.g.,{validators: [{type: 'regExp'}]}
options
Object <optional>
optional Object literal of options that the validator expects.
E.g.,{validators: [{type: 'regExp', options: {pattern: '[a-zA-Z0-9]{3,}'}}]}
Examples
Initialize the component with validator object literal:
// Foo is InputText, InputNumber, Select, etc. $(".selector").ojFoo({ validators: [{ type: 'numberRange', options : { hint: {min: 'Enter a value greater than {min}'}, min: 100 } }], }); NOTE: oj.Validation.validatorFactory('numberRange') returns the validator factory that is used to instantiate a range validator for numbers.
Initialize the component with multiple validator instances:
var validator1 = new MyCustomValidator({'foo': 'A'}); var validator2 = new MyCustomValidator({'foo': 'B'}); // Foo is InputText, InputNumber, Select, etc. $(".selector").ojFoo({ value: 10, validators: [validator1, validator2] });
-
value :string|undefined|null
-
The value of the component.
When
value
option changes due to programmatic intervention, the component always clears all messages and runs deferred validation, and always refreshes UI display value.Clearing Messages
- All messages are cleared. This includes
messagesHidden
,messagesShown
andmessagesCustom
options.
Running Validation
- component always runs deferred validation; if there is a validation error the
messagesHidden
option is updated.
- Default Value:
null
When the option is not set, the value of the checked radio is used, if a radio is checked.

Initialize the component with the
value
option specified:$(".selector").ojRadioset({'value': 'coffee'});
Get or set
value
option, after initialization:// Getter: returns 'coffee' $(".selector").ojRadioset("option", "value"); // Setter: sets 'tea' $(".selector").ojRadioset("option", "value", 'tea');
- All messages are cleared. This includes
Binding Attributes
Binding attributes are similar to component options, but are exposed only via the
ojComponent
binding.
-
invalidComponentTracker :oj.InvalidComponentTracker
-
When this attribute is bound to an observable, the framework pushes an object of type oj.InvalidComponentTracker onto the observable. The object itself tracks the validity of a group of editable components.
When this attribute is present, the binding registers a listener for the optionChange event. This event is fired by JET editable components whenever its validity changes (i.e. when messagesShown or messagesHidden options change). When the event is fired, the listener determines the current validity of the component and updates the tracker.
The observable bound to this attribute is often used with multiple component binding declarations as shown in the example below.
This attribute is only exposed via the
ojComponent
binding, and is not a component option.- Default Value:
null
- Since:
- 0.7
- Inherited From:

Examples
Track validity of multiple components using a single observable bound to the
invalidComponentTracker
attribute:<input id="username" type="text" name="username" required data-bind="ojComponent: {component: 'ojInputText', value: userName, invalidComponentTracker: tracker}"> <input id="password" type="password" name="password" required data-bind="ojComponent: {component: 'ojInputPassword', value: password, invalidComponentTracker: tracker}"/> // ViewModel that defines the tracker observable <script> function MemberViewModel() { var self = this; self.tracker = ko.observable(); self.userName = ko.observable(); self.password = ko.observable(); } </script>
Use tracker property
invalid
to disable button:// button is disabled if there are components currently showing errors <button type="button" data-bind="ojComponent: {component: 'ojButton', label: 'Submit', disabled: tracker()['invalidShown']}">
Sub-ID's
Each subId locator object contains, at minimum, a subId
property,
whose value is a string that identifies a particular DOM node in this component. It can have additional properties to further specify the desired node. See getNodeBySubId and getSubIdByNode methods for more details.
Properties:
Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
subId |
string | Sub-id string to identify a particular dom node. |
Following are the valid subIds:

var value = $(".selector").ojInputText("isValid");
-
option(optionName, value) → {Object|undefined}

This method has several overloads, which get and set component options and their fields. The functionality is unchanged from that provided by JQUI. See the examples for details on each overload.
Parameters:
Name Type Argument Description optionName
string | Object <optional>
the option name (string, first two overloads), or the map (Object, last overload). Omitted in the third overload. value
Object <optional>
a value to set for the option. Second overload only. - Inherited From:
- Source:
Returns:
The getter overloads return the retrieved value(s). When called via the public jQuery syntax, the setter overloads return the object on which they were called, to facilitate method chaining.- Type
- Object | undefined
Examples
First overload: get one option:
This overload accepts a (possibly dot-separated)
optionName
param as a string, and returns the current value of that option.var isDisabled = $( ".selector" ).ojFoo( "option", "disabled" ); // Foo is Button, Menu, etc. // For object-valued options, dot notation can be used to get the value of a field or nested field. var startIcon = $( ".selector" ).ojButton( "option", "icons.start" ); // icons is object with "start" field
Second overload: set one option:
This overload accepts two params: a (possibly dot-separated)
optionName
string, and a new value to which that option will be set.$( ".selector" ).ojFoo( "option", "disabled", true ); // Foo is Button, Menu, etc. // For object-valued options, dot notation can be used to set the value // of a field or nested field, without altering the rest of the object. $( ".selector" ).ojButton( "option", "icons.start", myStartIcon ); // icons is object with "start" field
Third overload: get all options:
This overload accepts no params, and returns a map of key/value pairs representing all the component options and their values.
var options = $( ".selector" ).ojFoo( "option" ); // Foo is Button, Menu, etc.
Fourth overload: set one or more options:
This overload accepts a single map of option-value pairs to set on the component. Unlike the first two overloads, dot notation cannot be used.
$( ".selector" ).ojFoo( "option", { disabled: true, bar: 42 } ); // Foo is Button, Menu, etc.
-
refresh()
-
Refreshes the radioset
A
refresh()
is required when a radioset is programatically changed, like in the following circumstances:- After radios are added or removed or modified (without using ojRadioset) in the DOM.
- After a radio's disabled dom attribute is changed. Since there is no api to change an individual radio's disabled state, the only way to do this is to change the radio's disabled attribute in dom and then to call refresh on the ojRadioset.

Returns:
When called via the public jQuery syntax, this method returns the object on which it was called, to facilitate method chaining.Example
Invoke the
refresh
method:$( ".selector" ).ojRadioset( "refresh" );
-
reset()
-
Resets the component by clearing all messages options -
messagesCustom
,messagesHidden
andmessagesShown
, and updates the component's display value using the option value. User entered values will be erased when this method is called.- Since:

-
showMessages()
-
Takes all hidden messages that are in the
messagesHidden
option and moves them tomessagesShown
option. If there were no messages inmessagesHidden
then this method simply returns.To view messages user has to set focus on the component.
An
optionChange
event is triggered on bothmessagesHidden

-
validate() → {boolean}
-
Validates the component's display value using the converter and all validators registered on the component and updates the
value
option by performing the following steps.- All messages are cleared, including custom messages added by the app.
- If no converter is present then processing continues to next step. If a converter is
present, the UI value is first converted (i.e., parsed). If there is a parse error then
the
messagesShown
option is updated and method returns false. - If there are no validators setup for the component the
value
option is updated using the display value and the method returns true. Otherwise all validators are run in sequence using the parsed value from the previous step. The implicit required validator is run first if the component is marked required. When a validation error is encountered it is remembered and the next validator in the sequence is run. - At the end of validation if there are errors, the
messagesShown
option is updated and method returns false. If there were no errors, then thevalue
option is updated and method returns true.

Non-public Methods
Note: Extending JET components is not currently supported. Thus, non-public methods are for internal use only.
-
<protected, static> _GetContentElement()
-
Returns a jquery object of the elements representing the content nodes (input type=radio). This is used in EditableValue to add aria-describedby to the input when there is a help icon, to add aria-required and aria-invalid
- Source:
-
<protected, static> _GetDefaultStyleClass() → {string}
-
Returns the default styleclass for the component. Currently this is used to pass to the _ojLabel component, which will append -label and add the style class onto the label. This way we can style the label specific to the input component. For example, for inline labels, the radioset/checkboxset components need to have margin-top:0, whereas all the other inputs need it to be .5em. So we'll have a special margin-top style for .oj-label-inline.oj-radioset-label All input components must override

Returns:
- Type
- string
-
<protected, static> _GetDisplayValue(value)
-
Returns the display value that is ready to be passed to the converter.
Parameters:
Name Type Description value
Object the stored value if available that needs to be formatted for display - Source:
-
<protected, static> _GetElementValue()
-
Returns the element's value. Normally, this is a call to this.element.val(), but in the case of ojRadioset, the element's value is really the value of the checked radio in the set.
- Source:
-
<protected, static> _HandleChangeEvent(event)
-
Parameters:
Name Type Description event
Event DOM event - Source:
-
<protected, static> _SetDisplayValue(displayValue)
-
Called when the display value on the element needs to be updated as a result of a value change. ojRadioset stores a String value, and this value matches the value of the currently checked radio. So, if we need to set the display value, what this means is we need to 'check' the radio whose value matches the displayValue.
Parameters:
Name Type Description displayValue
String of the new string to be displayed - Source:
-
<protected> _AfterCreate()
-
This is where we do things right after the component was created. this._super should be called first.
- Source:
-
<protected> _AfterCreateEvent()
-
This method is called after the
create
event is fired. Components usually should not override this method, as it is rarely correct to wait until after thecreate
event to perform a create-time task.An example of a correct usage of this method is Dialog's auto-open behavior, which needs to happen after the
create
event.Only behaviors (like Dialog auto-open behavior) should occur in this method. Component initialization must occur earlier, before the
create
event is fired, so thatcreate
listeners see a fully inited component.Overrides of this method should call
this._super
first.Do not confuse this method with the _AfterCreate method, which is more commonly used.

<protected> _AfterSetOptionConverter(option)
-
Performs post processing after converter option changes by taking the following steps. - always push new converter hint to messaging
- if component has no errors -> refresh UI value
- if component is invalid has messagesShown -> clear all component errors and run full validation using display value.

<protected> _AfterSetOptionDisabledReadOnly(option, validationOptions)
-
Performs post processing after disabled or readOnly option changes by taking the following steps. (Steps are same for readOnly option).
if disabled component is enabled then,
- if there are no errors, run deferred validation. component could have been initialized with empty value and disabled.
- if component is invalid and showing messages clear component error, grab UI value and run full validation.
- if component is invalid and has hidden messages; do nothing.
if enabled component is disabled no validation is run.
Parameters:

<protected> _AfterSetOptionRequired(option)
-
Performs post processing after required option is set by taking the following steps. - if component is invalid and has messgesShown -> required: false/true -> clear component errors; run full validation with UI value (we don't know if the UI error is from a required validator or something else);
- if there are validation errors, then value not pushed to model; messagesShown is updated
- if no errors result from the validation, push value to model; author needs to listen to optionChange(value) to clear custom errors.
- if component is invalid and has messagesHidden -> required: false -> clear component errors; no deferred validation is run.
- if component has no error -> required: true -> run deferred validation (we don't want to flag errors unnecessarily)
- messagesCustom is never cleared
Parameters:
Name Type Description option
string - Inherited From:

<protected> _AfterSetOptionValidators() → {undefined}
-
When validators option changes, take the following steps. - Clear the cached normalized list of all validator instances. push new hints to messaging.
- if component is valid -> validators changes -> no change
- if component is invalid has messagesShown -> validators changes -> clear all component messages and re-run full validation on displayValue. if there are no errors push value to model;
- if component is invalid has messagesHidden -> validators changes -> do nothing; doesn't change the required-ness of component
- messagesCustom is not cleared.

<protected> _GetReadingDirection() → {string}
-
Determines whether the component is LTR or RTL.
Component responsibilities:
- All components must determine directionality exclusively by calling this protected superclass method. (So that any future updates to the logic can be made in this one place.)
- Components that need to know the directionality must call this method at create-time
and from
refresh()
, and cache the value. - Components should not call this at other times, and should instead use the cached value. (This avoids constant DOM queries, and avoids any future issues with component reparenting (i.e. popups) if support for directional islands is added.)
App responsibilities:
- The app specifies directionality by setting the HTML
"dir"
attribute on the<html>
node. When omitted, the default is"ltr"
. (Per-component directionality / directional islands are not currently supported due to inadequate CSS support.) - As with any DOM change, the app must
refresh()
the component if the directionality changes dynamically. (This provides a hook for component housekeeping, and allows caching.)
- Default Value:
"ltr"
- Inherited From:
- Source:
Returns:
the reading direction, either"ltr"
or"rtl"
- Type
- string

<protected> _GetSavedAttributes(element) → {Object|null}
-

If you don't override _SaveAttributes and _RestoreAttributes, then this will return null.
If you override _SaveAttributes to call _SaveAllAttributes, then this will return all the attributes. If you override _SaveAttributes/_RestoreAttributes to do your own thing, then you may also have to override _GetSavedAttributes to return whatever you saved if you need access to the saved attributes.

JET components should almost never implement this JQUI method. Please consult an architect if you believe you have an exception. Reasons:
- This method is called at create time, after the
create
event is fired. It is rare for that to be the appropriate time to perform a create-time task. For those rare cases, we have the _AfterCreateEvent method, which is preferred over this method since it is called only at that time, not also at re-init time (see next). - This method is also called at "re-init" time, i.e. when the initializer is called after the component has already been created. JET has not yet identified any desired semantics for re-initing a component.

-
Notifies the component that its subtree has been connected to the document programmatically after the component has been created.
- Inherited From:
- Source:
-
<protected> _NotifyContextMenuGesture(menu, event, eventType)
-
When the contextMenu option is set, this method is called when the user invokes the context menu via the default gestures: right-click, Press & Hold, and Shift-F10. Components should not call this method directly.
The default implementation simply calls this._OpenContextMenu(event, eventType). Overrides of this method should call that same method, perhaps with additional params, not menu.open().
This method may be overridden by components needing to do things like the following:
- Customize the launcher or position passed to _OpenContextMenu(). See that method for guidance on these customizations.
- Customize the menu contents. E.g. some components need to enable/disable built-in commands like Cut and Paste, based on state at launch time.
- Bail out in some cases. E.g. components with UX approval to use PressHoldRelease rather than Press & Hold can override this method
to say
if (eventType !== "touch") this._OpenContextMenu(event, eventType);
. When those components detect the alternate context menu gesture (e.g. PressHoldRelease), that separate listener should call this._OpenContextMenu(), not this method (_NotifyContextMenuGesture()
), and not menu.open().
Components needing to do per-launch setup like the above tasks should do so in an override of this method, not in a beforeOpen listener or an _OpenContextMenu() override. This is discussed more fully here.
Parameters:
Name Type Description menu
Object The JET Menu to open as a context menu. Always non- null
.event
Event What triggered the menu launch. Always non- null
.eventType
string "mouse", "touch", or "keyboard". Never null

<protected> _OpenContextMenu(event, eventType, openOptions, submenuOpenOptions, shallow)
-
The only correct way for a component to open its context menu is by calling this method, not by calling Menu.open() or _NotifyContextMenuGesture(). This method should be called in two cases:
- This method is called by _NotifyContextMenuGesture() and its overrides. That method is called when the baseComponent detects the default context menu gestures: right-click, Press & Hold, and Shift-F10.
- Components with UX-approved support for alternate context menu gestures like PressHoldRelease should call this method directly when those gestures are detected.
Components needing to customize how the context menu is launched, or do any per-launch setup, should do so in the caller of this method, (which is one of the two callers listed above), often by customizing the params passed to this method (
_OpenContextMenu
) per the guidance below. This setup should not be done in the following ways:- Components should not perform setup in a beforeOpen listener, as this can cause a race
condition where behavior depends on who got their listener registered first: the component or the app. The only correct component use
of a
beforeOpen
listener is when there's a need to detect whether something else launched the menu. - Components should not override this method (
_OpenContextMenu
), as this method is final. Instead, customize the params that are passed to it.
Guidance on setting OpenOptions fields:
Launcher:
Depending on individual component needs, any focusable element within the component can be the appropriate launcher for this launch.
Browser focus returns to the launcher on menu dismissal, so the launcher must at least be focusable. Typically a tabbable (not just focusable) element is safer, since it just focuses something the user could have focused on their own.
By default (i.e. if
openOptions
is not passed, or if it lacks alauncher
field), the component init node is used as the launcher for this launch. If that is not focusable or is suboptimal for a given component, that component should pass something else. E.g. components with a "roving tabstop" (like Toolbar) should typically choose the current tabstop as their launcher.The :focusable and :tabbable selectors may come in handy for choosing a launcher, e.g. something like
this.widget().find(".my-class:tabbable").first()
.Position:
By default, this method applies positioning that differs from Menu's default in the following ways: (The specific settings are subject to change.)
- For mouse and touch events, the menu is positioned relative to the event, not the launcher.
- For touch events,
"my"
is set to"start>40 center"
, to avoid having the context menu obscured by the user's finger, and"collision"
is set to"flipfit"
, to avoid auto-scrolling on tablets.
Usually, if
position
needs to be customized at all, the only thing that needs changing is its"of"
field, and only for keyboard launches (since mouse/touch launches should almost certainly keep the default"event"
positioning). This situation arises anytime the element relative to which the menu should be positioned for keyboard launches is different than thelauncher
element (the element to which focus should be returned upon dismissal). For this case,{ "position": {"of": eventType==="keyboard" ? someElement : "event"} }
can be passed as theopenOptions
param.Be careful not to clobber useful defaults by specifying too much. E.g. if you only want to customize
"of"
, don't pass other fields like"my"
, since your value will be used for all modalities (mouse, touch, keyboard), replacing the modality-specific defaults that are usually correct. Likewise, don't forget theeventType==="keyboard"
check if you only want to customize"of"
for keyboard launches.InitialFocus:
This method forces initialFocus to
"menu"
for this launch, so the caller needn't specify it.Parameters:
Name Type Argument Description event
Event What triggered the context menu launch. Must be non- null
.eventType
string "mouse", "touch", or "keyboard". Must be non- null
. Passed explicitly since caller knows what it's listening for, and since events likecontextmenu
andclick
can be generated by various input modalities, making it potentially error-prone for this method to determine how they were generated.openOptions
Object <optional>
Options to merge with this method's defaults, which are discussed above. The result will be passed to Menu.open(). May be null
or omitted. See also theshallow
param.submenuOpenOptions
Object <optional>
Options to be passed through to Menu.open(). May be null
or omitted.shallow
boolean <optional>
Whether to perform a deep or shallow merge of openOptions
with this method's default value. The default and most commonly correct / useful value isfalse
.- If
true
, a shallow merge is performed, meaning that the caller'sposition
object, if passed, will completely replace this method's defaultposition
object. - If
false
or omitted, a deep merge is performed. For example, if the caller wishes to tweakposition.of
while keeping this method's defaults forposition.my
,position.at
, etc., it can pass{"of": anOfValue}
as theposition
value.
The
shallow
param is n/a forsubmenuOpenOptions

<protected> _SaveAllAttributes(element)
-
Saves all the element's attributes within an internal variable. _RestoreAllAttributes will restore the attributes from this internal variable.
This method is final in JET. Subclasses can override _RestoreAttributes and call _RestoreAllAttributes.
The JSON variable will be held as:
[ { "element" : element[i], "attributes" : { attributes[m]["name"] : {"attr": attributes[m]["value"], "prop": $(element[i]).prop(attributes[m]["name"]) } } ]
Parameters:
Name Type Description element
Object jQuery selection to save attributes for - Inherited From:

<protected> _SaveAttributes(element)
-
Saves all the element's attributes. In _destroy all attributes will be restored.
Parameters:
Name Type Description element
Object jQuery selection to save attributes for - Inherited From:

<protected> _SetDisabledDom(node)
-
Sets the disabled option onto the dom. This is a no-op for checkboxset since its root dom element is a div, and disabled is invalid on a div. If we did try to set disabled on the div, then restore attributes doesn't work correctly since it wasn't saved correctly.
Parameters:
Name Type Description node
Object dom node - Since:
- 1.0.0

<protected> _SetDisplayValue(displayValue)
-
Called when the display value on the element needs to be updated. This method updates the (content) element value. Widgets can override this method to update the element appropriately.
Parameters:
Name Type Description displayValue
String of the new string to be displayed - Inherited From:
- Source:
-
<protected> _setOption(name, value, flags)
-
Called (by the widget factory) when the option changes, this method responds to the change by refreshing the component if needed. This method is not called for the options passed in during the creation of the widget.
Parameters:
Name Type Description name
string of the option value
Object | string flags
Object? optional flags. The following flags are currently supported: - changed - true if the caller wants to indicate the value has changed, so no comparison is necessary

<protected> _SetPlaceholder(value)
-
Sets the placeholder text on the content element by default. It sets the placeholder attribute on the element. Component subclasses can override this method to control where placeholder text gets set.
Parameters:
Name Type Description value
string - Inherited From:
- Source:
-
<protected> _SetPlaceholderOption(value)
-
Sets the placeholder option with the value.

<protected> _SetRawValue(event, val)
-
Convenience function to set the rawValue option. Called by subclasses
Parameters:

Event DOM event val
String <optional>
value to set rawValue to - Inherited From:
- Source:
-
<protected> _SetRootAttributes()
-
Reads the

option, and sets the root attributes on the component's root DOM element. See rootAttributes for the set of supported attributes and how they are handled.- Inherited From:
- Source:
Throws:
if unsupported attributes are supplied. -
<protected> _SetValue(newValue, event, options) → {boolean}
-
Runs full validation on the newValue (usually the display value) and sets the parsed value on the component if value passes basic checks and there are no validation errors.
If the newValue is undefined or if it differs from the last saved displayValue this method skips validation and does not set value (same as ADF).
Parameters:
Name Type Argument Description newValue
string | Object the ui value that needs to be parsed before it's set. event
Object <optional>
an optional event if this was a result of ui interaction. For user initiated actions that trigger a DOM event, passing this event is required. E.g., if user action causes a 'blur' event. options
Object <optional>
an Object literal that callers pass in to determine how validation gets run. Properties
Name Type Argument Description doValueChangeCheck
boolean <optional>
if set to true compare newValue with last displayValue before running validation; if false, always run validation. E.g., set to false when validate() is called. doNotClearMessages
boolean <optional>
if set method will not clear all messages. This is provided for callers that may want to clear only some of the messages. E.g., when required option changes, it clears only component messages, not custom. validationMode
number <optional>
accepted values (defined in _VALIDATION_MODE) are: - FULL - the default and runs both the converter and all validators.
- VALIDATORS_ONLY - runs all validators including the required validator is run.
- REQUIRED_VALIDATOR_ONLY - runs just the required validator.
- Inherited From:
- Source:
Returns:
false if value was not set due to validation error.- Type
- boolean
Example
Widget subclasses can use this convention to run full validation
this._SetValue(value, event);
-
<protected> _UnregisterChildNode()
-
Remove all listener references that were attached to the element which includes _activeable, _focusable and hoverable.
- Inherited From:
- Source:
-
<protected> _Validate(newValue, event, options) → {Object|string|undefined}
-
Runs full validation on the value. If value fails basic checks (see _CanSetValue, or if value failed validation, this method returns false. Otherwise it returns true.
Components should call this method if they know UI value has changed and want to set the new component value.
Parameters:
Name Type Argument Description newValue
string | Object the actual value to be set. Usually this is the string display value event
Object <optional>
an optional event if this was a result of ui interaction. For user initiated actions that trigger a DOM event, passing this event is required. E.g., if user action causes a 'blur' event. options
{doNotClearMessages:boolean,validationContext:number,validationMode:number} <optional>
an Object literal that callers pass in to determine how validation gets run. Properties
Name Type Argument Description doNotClearMessages
boolean <optional>
if set method will not clear all messages. This is provided for callers that may want to clear only some of the messages. E.g., when required option changes, it clears only component messages, not custom. validationContext
number <optional>
